Examples from our studio
This ink and watercolour pet portrait starts tight and loosens as it goes: fine ink picks out the eyes, nose and fur, then the picture breaks into watercolour washes, with splatter and drips across bright white paper. Black is the suggested frame colour, and you can switch to any other frame colour.
Framed prints take a white mount inside the frame for the gallery look, or none at all, so the picture runs to the frame edge. Canvas and art prints have no mount. For this look, hold the camera at your pet's eye level.

2. Add one photo

4. Proof, then print
A designer reviews your portrait for print quality, you approve a proof before anything goes to press, and it is printed in Australia.
Which frame colour suits the Ink and Watercolour Splash style?
Black is the frame colour suggested for this style, and the style page picks it for you. You can change it to any other frame colour.
On a framed print, the white mount sits as a border inside the frame and gives the gallery look. Choose no mount and the picture runs right to the edge instead. Canvas and art prints never use a mount.
Will this style work for a cat or a horse, not just a dog?
Yes. The examples from our studio show this style on four dogs, two cats and a chestnut horse.
A dog becomes an ink and watercolour dog portrait, and a cat or horse gets the same ink and wash treatment.
Can I see the ink detail in the portrait before I pay?
Once your photo is in, the preview shows the whole portrait up close before you pay, so you can weigh the fine ink detail around the eyes and nose and how far the watercolour washes spread. A second view, On the wall, places the piece in a room.
The free preview carries a watermark. The printed portrait does not.
Can one portrait have two pets, or me with my pet?
One portrait holds up to three pets, or you with your pet, one pet with one or two people, or two pets with one person. Add one photo per pet and per person, and a selfie is fine. With a person in the portrait, one photo of everyone together also works, and you confirm you hold the rights to the photos. Separate photos come out side by side, close together, nobody hugging or holding. No extra cost. A few styles stop at two pets, shown on the style page.
What changes can I ask for on my portrait?
Each style page has an optional Special requests box above Add to cart. Our design team reads your note and makes the change before your proof, included in the price. People ask for the name smaller or larger, the name centred or moved up or down, wider or tighter letter spacing, two names over two lines, a background colour outside the swatches, a collar, lead or harness left out, a stray object behind the pet tidied away, the crop adjusted for more room above the ears, or an eye colour or coat marking corrected.
What if it does not look like my pet?
You are the judge, first in the free preview before you pay. If it is not right, try another photo or another style at no cost. Write what you would like adjusted in the Special requests box. After you order, a designer reviews the portrait to make sure it will print well, then you receive a proof. Nothing is printed until you approve the proof, and if you want it refined at the proof, we refine it at no cost.
